[usocket-devel] LispWorks and UDP

[Chun Tian (binghe)]

Hi, Erik

I'm a Linux system administrator, and I need a UDP universal interface  
for my SNMP, and IPMI work.
Now I have to port to every CL platform by myself, but I think maybe I  
should do this by patch usocket to support UDP.

Is there any UDP porting framework which already exist in usocket? I'm  
very interesting in getting UDP support to work on LispWorks, SBCL,  
and OpenMCL, the three main platforms I use.

Regards,

Chun TIAN (binghe)
